DEF

crystallographic planes: Any set of parallel and equally spaced planes that may be supposed to pass through the centers of atoms in crystals. As every plane must pass through atomic centers and no centers must be situated between planes, the distance between successive planes in a set depends on their direction in relation to the arrangement of atomic centers.

CONT

The perthitic segregations typically develop along crystallographic planes ..., producing intergrowths of subparallel blebs, rods, strings, or lamellae of exsolved material in an optically continuous host.
